[The BIG thing has come.
The "Mad-Boys" are called for duty, and they are very ready for a fight.

Buckle up your pants, this fight is NOT gonna be easy.
Unlike those babies that play tourist and call themselves "Madness Fan", we aim towards the highest of difficulties. Yes. We mean the 'Madness-difficulty'.

If you fail during a mission, don't worry.
Just come back here, learn a thing or two... Then you try again.

We will see you victorious in the end.]

"Like in almost every game. You have the basic movement to move around. You see that guy with red glowing glasses? That's Hank Wimbleton, protagonist of the Madness Combat series and we'll get to him sooner."





Each of these commands sounds very basic, but using them properly in-game is a different matter.
Especially, if you are thinking of doing higher difficulties, knowing when to do certain attacks are VERY important.

Enough jibber jabber...
Let's see what we can do!

- - - - -







Each "Corpus" block is your health.

The more you have, the longer you'll able to endure all of the pain.
Each corpus will regain itself if it`s not completely broken, and you can speed it up by hurting enemies.

Once the block is broken however, the only way to recover it is by using a medical station.


















They always glow green and have shape of cross. Makes easier to locate them. Corpus recover depends on the difficulty.

Using a medical station also recharges your Tac-Bar instantly(regardless of difficulty).


- - - - -



"Tac-Bar" is a meter that gives you damage reduction against enemy projectiles.

The meter will be decreased everytime you get hit by your enemy`s projectile(thrown melee weapon, bullets, throwables...etc), and once it reaches 0, you will start receiving full damage.

Damaging enemies will recharge your Tac-Bar meter.

△ - "Tourist" Difficulty - △





ⴲ - "Normal" Difficulty - ⴲ





ⴲ - "TOUGH" Difficulty - ⴲ

ⴲ - "MADNESS" Difficulty - ⴲ



"{MADNESS} difficulty is unlocked only after you beat the TOUGH difficulty.

Every health point is reduced to 33%, which applies to you & all your enemies & environments(only applies to health, not Tac-bar)."

- - - - -



Walk : Press "W, A, S, D" or combine two of them to move at a single direction. You can also press "CapsLock" once to auto-walk.



Sprint(or Run) : Double tap "W, A, S, D" to run, or press "CapsLock" twice for an auto-sprint.





Snap-Dodge : Tap "Space" while pressing "W, A, S, D" to quickly dodge to a certain direction.

引用自 May：

You can recover much faster than a Full-Dodge.

Break : Snap-Dodging while when you are about to get "Hit-Stunned" will let you "Break" out from the next enemy attack.

引用自 May：

You can attack right away after a Break, giving yourself the advantage on a dual-situation.

Full-Dodge : Tap "Space" twice, or hold "Shift" while pressing "Space".

引用自 May：

You are immune to lot of attacks while doing this.

- - - - -



Stealth Takedown : Press "E" while behind an enemy that has yet noticed you.

引用自 May：

This will not alert other enemies, while deleting a single corpus of your target.

Takedown(Dazed) : Press "E" while near an enemy that is "Dazed". Dazed enemies have a blue mark above them.

引用自 May：

This attack also deletes a single corpus of your target.

Light Kick : Press "Middle-Mouse(scroll button)" to kick.

引用自 May：

You can do this while holding a Melee/Ranged weapon.

Dash Punch : Press "Left-Mouse" while sprinting. You can do this by pressing Middle-Mouse(scroll button) too.

引用自 May：

Normal sized enemies will be knocked down easily.

Heavy Kick : Press both "Middle-Mouse(scroll button)" and "Shift" while sprinting.
You can do this while holding a Melee/Ranged weapon.

引用自 May：

Enemies hit with this attack are easily knocked away, except for G03LMs and most Boss type enemies.

- - - - -


"Critical" hits happen when certain conditions are met with some of your attacks. These kind of hits deal much more damage than usual, while giving you the chance to instantly kill enemies can revive multiple times.

Most enemies killed with a "Critical" hit will be gibbed(spaghetti, but made of brains and intestines).

{{How to do "Critical" Hits}}


UNARMED & MELEE : Click right before your punch hits your target(slow double click)

引用自 May：

Works with normal, heavy, and charged-up attacks.

RANGED : The target must be inside the "Sweet-Spot"(Green Highlighted area)

引用自 May：

Using head aiming increases damage further.

THROW : The target needs to be hit with the right spot of your weapon(ex. blade of your thrown knife)

引用自 May：

Don't try getting critical hits with throwables. It comes naturally, not like you can control it every time.

- - - - -


"Unarmed attacks might seem weak, but it has the highest Daze potential of all of the attack types. After having more than 10 combos, every single punch you do have higher Daze chances(depends on combo count)."


Light Punch : Quickly tap your "Left-Mouse" for a light punch combo.

引用自 Sub-Zero：

The damage is weak, but you can do rapid attacks.

Heavy Punch: Press-Hold "Shift" while tapping your "Left-Mouse" for a heavy attack.

引用自 Sub-Zero：

The damage is stronger than a light punch, but you will attack slowly.

Charge-up Punch: Press-Hold "Left-Mouse" until you hear a whoosh sound.

引用自 May：

The second charge does more attacks than the first one.

Guard : Press-Hold "Right-Mouse" for a guard.

引用自 May：

You can reduce incoming unarmed&melee damage.

Counter : Press-Hold "Right-Mouse" just before your enemy does a Melee/Unarmed attack to you.

引用自 May：

Enemies that are hit with a counter attack are easily knocked down, while also getting dazed(about 50% of the time)

https://psteamcommunity.yuanyoumao.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=2763399768

Counter, Charge : Press-Hold "Right-Mouse" just before your enemy does a charging, or grab attack to you. This can also be done with a melee weapon equipped, but not with only holding ranged weapons(Melee + Ranged weapon works).

引用自 May：

You will throw the same enemy far away, even making them thrown into hazards. Enemies that are thrown this way are dazed for a long time.

- - - - -


- Commands that applies to both Melee & Ranged weapons. -



Weapon Pickup : Press "Q" while your Cursor is on the weapon you want to pick up. You can also do this while dashing.













Weapon Drop : Press "R" while you have your weapon equipped.

引用自 May：

Dropping a weapon is much more quicker than throwing one. Very useful when your "Huge" gun is empty.

Weapon Throw : Press "Left Mouse" while Holding "Q". You can decide which way to throw with your mouse aim.

引用自 May：

Large weapons make you throw them slowly(except for Jebus Christoff), but deals much more damage.

Swap Weapons : Press "Tab" to switch between your primary and secondary weapon.

引用自 May：

You can 'save' a good weapon for later on, by using your secondary slot.

Dual Wield : Press "Q" while Holding down "Shift". You can dual wield 'guns', 'melee weapons', or 'gun & melee weapon'.

引用自 May：

Just know that some weapons cannot be dual-wielded at all.

Dual Wield - Melee attack : Press "Middle mouse(scroll button)" to swing your melee weapon, while holding a gun in your first hand.











- - - - -


"Melee weapons CARRY you from start to finish, especially when you are playing on higher difficulties. Knowing how to use them properly is crucial for mastering the game.

Your swing speed will be faster each time the Combo meter goes up."




Light Swing : Quickly tap "Left Mouse". Does lesser damage than a heavy swing, but is great for hit-and-dodge.

引用自 May：

Some melee weapons can even one shot normal type enemies, when you are playing on "Madness difficulty".

Heavy Swing : Tap "Left Mouse" while holding down "Shift".

引用自 May：

You can hit multiple enemies with this attack, while also dealing huge chunks of damage. However, you cannot dodge while doing this.

Charge-up(Melee) : Press-Hold "Left Mouse" and let go after you hear a 1st or 2nd whoosh sound.

引用自 May：

Combining this attack with a crit can almost triple a single melee hit damage. A quick 1st level charge up at a right moment can easily melt down even a tough boss.

Guard : Press-Hold "Right Mouse" to guard incoming melee & unarmed attacks.

引用自 May：

"Hank" and "Christoff" can even block incoming bullets with guard.

Parry : Doing a melee guard just before your enemy strikes you will connect with a "Parry".

引用自 May：

Your opponent will be stunned for a short time, allowing you to strike him right away.

Takedown(Melee) : Press "E" while having a micro weapon or shard. Micro weapons & Shards(by-product of broken melee weapons) will allow you to instantly takedown a single enemy.

引用自 May：

If your second hand is empty, think of holding a screwdriver or scalpel for a next fight.

- - - - -


"Guns are good. But remember that every bullet runs out fast.

Use it quick, then throw it away.

DON'T RELY on just one gun. Always think of a way to completely kill that sum-biach even when your trigger goes click.

From the start, Madness Combat was all about SPRAY & KILL, NOT 'I wanna suck my favorite gun before Night-Night, Mama.'"




Head-aim : Press Hold "Shift" while aiming your gun at your target.

引用自 May：

Your aim will automatically aim for your enemy's head, allowing you to deal more damage to them.

Off-Hand Aim : Press "Right Mouse" while aiming for better accuracy.

引用自 May：

You can Shoot single rounds while doing this, even when you are using a full-auto rifle(however not very useful). Standing still + Off-Hand Aim will greatly deduce your gun's recoil.

Dodge-Shoot : Dodge while shooting.

引用自 May：

Quite useful against enemy hellfire. Nough' said.

- - - - -

Sweet-Spot

"Sweet-Spots are Green - Highlighted areas that your bullets are most effective.

Any enemy that are standing in this spot will receive full bullet damage even their Tac-Bar remains, and the same bullets will deal Critical damage."

引用自 May：

Every weapon has their own Sweet-Spot range. Using it is good, but don't crave it.

- - - - -


"Throwables are unique disposal weapons. They cannot be picked up when thrown. So they can be used as your last ditch or to finish up enemies."

引用自 May：

Throwables are automatically recharged when you load to a next stage(at checkpoint).

Pickup : To pick a Throwable, press "Q" beside standing it.




Throw : To throw one, press "G" while aiming at your target, or where you want it to drop.

引用自 May：

Most throwables such as Grenades will drop right where you put your mouse cursor. So it is best if you place your aim right at your enemies directly, or at least near them.

- - - - -

Throwable Types :

{{Knife Type}} : Comes in better numbers(25~40). Thrown straight, with less curved ark.





{{Grenade Type}} : Only 7 at a time. Thrown in a curved ark, with an devastating explosion after a short fuse time.

引用自 May：

FlashBang explosions do little damage, but has a great chance to daze enemies. It is best advised to throw ahead of where your enemy would travel, so they would not dodge away it's explosion.

{{Nexus Bolt}} : Best throwables in the game, dealing 20(60 on Madness) damage while homing on targets. Counts are up to 20.(Auto equipped for Christoff)





{{Magic Bolt}} : This is only obtainable by using "Crackpot's Loadout". Counts are infinite, but with very slow cast time and cooldown. You throw 3 homing projectiles, which will travel in a slow, curved ark.

"Throughout out the game, you'll encounter various stuff to interact. Such as books, logs, computers, switches, doors and etc. Whenever you're close to an Interactive Object, the game will highlight that object.


You can use Interactive objects by pressing "E"."

引用自 Sub-Zero：

You can see what stuff you need to interact when holding Q button.

Objectives

"During the playthrough and progression. The game will give you tasks what you will to do and you will need to finish them with strategy."

引用自 Sub-Zero：

It's usually ignored as you start blasting everything in your path.

引用自 May：

Was there an Objective in this game...? Weird.

{{Destructible Object}}

Some objects needs to be destroyed before you proceed.

引用自 May：

Some are hidden, and needs to be shot with guns. So look around if you think you're stuck.

- - - - -

{{Explosives(C-4 required)}}
















"Sanford" is the only character that can set up "Explosives".
You need to obtain "C-4" before making the explosion.

Obtaining "C-4", putting it down setting it up can be all done with "E"



{{Computers(hacking)}}















"Hacking interactive" are usually done by Deimos. Some computers contain information about the story.

引用自 May：

Hank doesn't do hacking.

- - - - -


Keycards : Required to open up a locked door. Press "Q" to pick it up.

引用自 May：

They are usually near you. Find it.

"The automatic combat system for this game is pretty stupid. Your computer-driven teammate will jump off cliffs, head straight into explosions, beaten up by crowds, steal your weapons....and MUCH MORE!!! (applause)"

To prevent them from, you know, doing their normal stuff. You should give them certain commands.

So, here are a list of commands that would be very useful in-game.

- - - - -



{{Change Control}} : Tap "Ctrl" to take control of your available teammate.

引用自 May：

You cannot control downed(all corpus broken) teammates.

{{Select Individual Teammate}} : While holding "Ctrl", press "Right Mouse" to select individual teammate. If you don't do this, all of your teammates will follow the same command.

---

{{Move Teammate}} : "Ctrl" + "Left Mouse" at where you want to move your teammate.(Blue signal)

引用自 May：

Sometimes your teammate will not follow this command. If so, just spam your L.Mouse.

{{Attack Enemy}} : "Ctrl" + "Left Mouse" at an enemy.(Red signal)

---

{{Place Teammate}} : "Ctrl" + "Middle Mouse" at where you want to move your teammate.(Blue signal)

引用自 May：

If place your cursor right next to a barricade, teammates will automatically hide behind it.(Yellow signal)

{{Pickup Weapon}} : "Ctrl" + "Left or Middle Mouse" at a weapon.(Yellow signal)









{{Activate object / Heal up}} : "Ctrl" + "Middle Mouse" at an object or Health station.(Yellow signal)

引用自 May：

If you want a specific teammate to heal up, Select him individually

This part of the guide is for people who wants to play "TOUGH" difficulty or higher.

Some of these tips and tricks sound hard at first,
but it will be pretty easy if you keep on trying.

◈◈◈ Heal Priority - "Heal YOURSELF first!" ◈◈◈


Use heal kits for your main character first.
If your character has full health, then you can heal up your companions.

引用自 Helmet：

This is because the AI in this game is very inferior. It's very likely for your teammates to lose a corpus in a very stupid way.

---

◈◈◈ Boss Fights - Using companions as a "BAIT" ◈◈◈

Most of the bosses prioritize killing the character YOU control.
Swap to your teammate if a boss starts a pattern that you are not familiar with.

When the boss uses the same pattern upon your "Bait", quickly swap to your original character and proceed attacking.

Example(Spoiler Alert) :

https://youtu.be/7KJi60Sy_dE (watch 0:50~0:57)

---

◈◈◈ Do not use guns against "Bullet-Sponges" ◈◈◈


These types of enemies are usually way bigger than you, and the bullets you shoot at them deal significantly less damage.

For example, when you shoot this Mag with a "AN-2500"...
The "13" Full Damage will be reduced to mere "1" Damage.
Even using a full clip will only do 150 damage.

Even though some weapons like the "Revolver" does a bit of pierce damage, its better of taking them out with melee or unarmed.

---

◈◈◈ Try not Dying before a checkpoint(loading screen) ◈◈◈

OR you will have to start from the beginning.

引用自 Helmet：

OR you will find yourself quitting the game.

---

◈◈◈ Dealing with enemy waves - "Melee, Heavy-swings" ◈◈◈

Spam heavy-swing attacks while moving backwards, while facing against a crowd of enemies.

引用自 Helmet：

"Katana" is the best weapon for this.

Example : https://youtu.be/c9zNaL70cIU

---

◈◈◈ DON'T USE HUGE MELEE WEAPONS ◈◈◈

Sluggish attack time, and if you get stunned once between that, your whole attack gets canceled.

---

◈◈◈ Melee vs Melee / Guns vs Guns ◈◈◈

Use melee weapons against melee wielding enemies.
Use guns against enemies that shoot at you.

引用自 Helmet：

This way you can save your ammo, also saving some time from switching weapons.

---

◈◈◈ Akimbo - 'How to use them properly' ◈◈◈

引用自 Helmet：

In "Tough", use it freely.
In "Madness", no.

Don't use akimbo(dual wielding guns) in battle, at least on Madness difficulty.
In Tough difficulty or below, you will got extra magazines. But in Madness, no.

Use this ONLY to move your weapons to the next door, or a locked area.

引用自 May：

It's because of gun recoil. Not only akimbo shooting reduces your accuracy greatly, you will have no control over bullet spread.

---

◈◈◈ How to SKIP DIALOGUES ◈◈◈

If you aren't interested in the story at all, Just skip all dialogues with "Shift + Ctrl + Enter"!!!

Quick jab : This is a trick which you repeat a dash punch. You can keep knocking down a single enemy without much trouble.

https://psteamcommunity.yuanyoumao.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=2770712670

引用自 May：

Extremely useful against normal sized enemies, especially ones that deals lots of damage.

- - - - -


Charge-up Cancel : You can dodge out to cancel a charge-up. Great to use when enemies come faster than you expected.

引用自 May：

Charge-up, cancel with full-dodge(making an enemy miss an attack), quickly attack with a first charge-up. Usually works.

Charge Teleport : You can move close to your enemy while initiating a charge-up attack. Click spam at your target when you send out the attack.

https://psteamcommunity.yuanyoumao.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=2652767540

引用自 May：

The example is a bit exaggerated, but it works even in Story Mode too. Just know that doing this allows you a feet closer to your enemy.

Motion Cancel : Quickly back-dodge when your charge-up attack is finished.

引用自 May：

Combine this with "Charge Teleport", and you can melt even a Mag unit.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mf5LXbUWLnc

- - - - -

Abandon Teammate : When you see a next door opened(and no Health stations near you), just proceed without reviving your teammates. They will retrieve a single corpus automatically when you enter the next room.

引用自 May：

Don't feel bad. I abandon my teammates all the time!(...Not a joke)

- - - - -

Stealth Charge-up : If you press "left mouse" and quickly hold "Ctrl", you can use charge-up attacks without needing to hold yourself in one place.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Zhxrao5zsTc&t=41s

引用自 May：

You can even RUN while holding your charge-up!
Which means you can now use charge-up attacks at any given time.

◉ Hank J Wimbleton :


{{Loadouts - Hank}}

引用自 May：

Hank, although has lower health than other characters, has the best physical stats. It's recommended to play as him most of the time.

◉ Sanford


{{Loadouts - Sanford}}

引用自 May：

Sanford has better stats than Deimos, which allows him to dual wield guns that are much heavier. His hook can return to him when thrown, dragging a single enemy along the way.

💀 Deimos


{{Loadouts - Dedmos}}

引用自 May：

This guy is cursed beyond belief. Whether you control him or not, he will ALWAYS find a new way to die horrendously. Just... use him whenever you need to hack into computers. Other times? Use him as BAIT.

◉ Christoff


{{Loadouts - Christoff}}

引用自 May：

Christoff's stats are almost good as hanks, though difference is that his Charge-up attacks and throwables are changed with his dissonance ability. He can also retrieve objects that are out of reach.

We have a LOT of spoilers from now on.

Let Church comes to you first, while waiting on the left side end.
Throw a grenade at his feet to knock him over.
Use Deimos as bait, while you do charge-up attacks at Church with the rapier.(you can use scalpel to stop an action).

You can counter it's dive attack. Performing a takedown leads to a instant kill too.

Easily dealt with any attack. Just don't get grabbed.

引用自 May：

If you are slowed, just snap dodge for a while until the effect wears off

引用自 May：

Also guns work. Just aim at his head.

This thing is easy to deal with. Just a slow moving target that does slow but powerful punches.

▣ "Tricky's Show" ▣

This is not a boss, but we do have a quite difficult end-fight.
There are 3 enemies that appear in here. All of them needs to be quickly killed, or they will do devastating damage.

引用自 May：

These things are very deadly, kill these quick or you die quick.

{{Zap Turrets}}
These thing are not things you can kill, but it always shoots a powerful zap beam into an "X" direction until it disappears.


{{Trap Patterns}} - Marked with red signals

1. Obstacle Pop-up
2. Fire Trap (Dot damage)
3. Platform remove
4. Mini-Turret(shoots lazer)
5. Zap Turrets (Always X direction)

引用自 May：

The best way is to use guns against turrets and zeds. Other enemies can be dealt with melee weapons. Snap dodge away if you can't deal with a lot of enemies.

引用自 Helmet：

Wave 1. Use guns only, they will drop regularly during wave.

Wave 2. Swap to Katana, use heavy swing if you're swarmed

Wave 3. Same as the wave 2, but prioritize sleepwalker GO3LM. DO NOT let them corner you

Critical hits are extremely useful against these things. Long melee weapons charge-ups can also kill it instantly.

引用自 Helmet：

Guns to head 99 percent success rate

引用自 May：

Critical hits are extremely useful against these things. Don't do charge up attacks to these guys though, you'll get spit in your face.

引用自 May：

Critical melee hits one-shot kill these guys on madness difficulty.

引用自 May：

The thrown hook is extremely deadly. Keep on eye as he does a throwing move before actually throwing it. You can charge-up attack to prevent him from reviving.

引用自 May：

His shovel is a very useful charge-up attack weapon. Great to use normally too!

引用自 May：

I use charge-up melee attacks after knocking it down with a dash punch. Helmet just shoots it. Your choice.

引用自 Helmet：

shoot or melee him in the BACK.

引用自 May：

I'd just use charge-up melee hits. And you can also counter it's dropkick too.

引用自 May：

These guys will usually try to get really close to you. Heavy melee hits are very good when they come in huge numbers.

引用自 Helmet：

Trained version of AAHW goons

引用自 May：

haha Nexus Nerds.

引用自 May：

He can snipe you from miles away. Seriously.

引用自 Helmet：

Trained version of AAHW goons. But unlike Agents he took basic sniper training

引用自 May：

Dropkick in the face, Charge-up melee to his balls. Easy kill.

引用自 Helmet：

Heavy-swing or charge-up. Pick your poison.

引用自 May：

This thing is an TEAMMATE KILLER. Your teammates are not programmed to deal with his shield block, so you need to deal either kill these Riot guards first, or command your teammates to get far away.

引用自 Helmet：

It also means you can break their spines, while they're too busy knocking down your companions.

引用自 May：

These guys become real scary when more than 3 spawns at the same time. They should be your No.1 target in most scenarios.

引用自 Helmet：

Remember sweet-spot? This skill will mow them down. Lacks of ammo? I'm hoping you saved some durability of Katana.

引用自 May：

The G03LM units are very slow, try avoiding them until other highly-mobile enemies are dead.

Fall back to Right side, upper corner if you cannot deal with them all at once(leaves some on the left). Attack with your teammates.
